Crj/erj 90 Min. Limit!

[Flyingdutchman]

ERJ's and CRJ's should not be allowed to fly anything over 90 mins !!!

(I just need to vent a little)

 

[BenderGonzales]

Agreed!

As long as they pay pilots those salaries, they will be crossing the pond someday.

 

[SennaP1]

Too late.

No sh*t guys...

Omaha -- EWR on a ERJ ?? gimme a break!!!
MEM/MSP- DEN on a CRJ instead of a mainline A320... You gotta be kidding me.

Well, it would be one thing if the routes you guys are talking about were ONLY flown by RJ's, but I think in almost all cases you will find that the RJ is merely supplementing mainline service with additional frequencies.

IAH-ORD for instance, you get 8 or 9 mainline 737's everday and two or three RJ's thrown in between.

I did YYZ - IAH last week. Blocked at 3:39

Before that I did DCA - IAH and CLE - AUS....

It's not getting any better.

I thought I was pretty much immune to it, but it hit me with a vengenace recently. Blocked 4:41 to get from EWR to OKC last week bucking a 170 knot roadblock. I was ready to break the FMS screens after a few too many glances at the Progress page. However as I pointed out the people during the greeting PA, it was the fastest and only direct way from the New York Metropolitan area to OKC. They all got home alot earlier that night then by taking mainline. That is a market for an RJ regardless of the leg length. Where it does not belong is connecting cities with a metro area well over a million people like IAH-ORD.

As far as Im concerned ( aside from the fellow aviators and people in the industry) these customers do not deserve anything else until they pay for it. If they don like it, they can drive their Ford escort the 700 miles and pay twice as much.:crying:
These problems stem from the customer paying 1980s prices, with fuel prices and airport taxes at an all time high. Who are the MORONS running this industry?:smash:
